022 - Chasing ghosts [Action]

[tionysus]

[Things have been quiet at house 25 with Draco gone, and Myuria's attempting to keep herself busy despite the fog. She's dusting off one of the curtains when she happens to glance outside, seeing a figure in the fog that she'd never thought she'd see again. Lucien Tionysus is standing out in the fog, reaching out for her. She can hear his voice

[Arumat's been on edge ever since this entire thing began. As if the costume wasn't bad enough (normally he would smirk at the symbolism of being dressed as Death, but after experiencing it for himself, he's far more bothered by the costume than he expected), there's something very wrong with the atmosphere of the town now, something that's making him jumpy and unnaturally touchy. Those strange visions and movements he's been seeing out of the corner of his eyes haven't helped either.

Hearing Myuria call out the name of her dead husband sets him immediately on alert. Is she seeing things too? But when that cry is then followed by the sound of the door opening, he's on his feet and racing out of his bedroom after her, intent on stopping her before she gets too far.]

Myuria!

[She'd been trying to ignore the visions and keep herself focused on staying safe, but all bets are off now that Lucien is presumably in the picture. Myuria hears Arumat behind her, but she's still running.]

[Then he'll just be giving chase, because dammit, something about that fog bothers him. It's unnatural, and every instinct he has is telling him that it's dangerous for them to be out in in.]

[She stops in the forest, only because she isn't sure what direction to be going in anymore. The air is eerily quiet.] Lucien! Where are you?
